@jeff Well, I'm not restarting anything here, it's obviously not supposed to require that. Just trying to figure out what could be wrong because the observations described could be anything. @jeff It's either a) the streaming server isn't up or can't be connected to for some reason or b) the sidekiq service is not executing jobs. There's a link to the Sidekiq dashboard from the admin UI. @Gargron hey wanted to follow-up on this. looks like your hunch was correct - the sidekiq service was not executing jobs. under "Dashboard" the top timeline was all blank. When I ran "systemctl restart mastodon-sidekiq" my timeline started to fill in and it functions now. just strange behavior considering it has only been up for 3 days. |
@Gargron sorry. wasn't trying to be unclear.
sometimes everything on the instance stops. as in no new content in federated timeline or home. if I try to follow someone, it says pending even if they don't require approval.
But if I restart those 3x services, my home screen and timeline will fill up and display new content, and I'm able to follow those same accounts with one click.
